Publisher Comments:

One day down on the farm, Duck got a wild idea. "I bet I could ride a bike," he thought. He waddled over to where the boy parked his bike, climbed on and began to ride. At first he rode slowly and he wobbled a lot, but it was fun! Duck rode past Cow and waved to her. "Hello, Cow!" said Duck. "Moo," said Cow. But what she thought was, "A duck on a bike? That's the silliest thing I've ever seen!" And so Duck rides past sheep, horse, and all the other barnyard animals. Suddenly, a group of kids ride by on their bikes and run into the farmhouse, leaving the bikes outside. Now ALL the animals can ride bikes, just like Duck!

Synopsis:

Sly twists and witty illustrations are featured in this fun-filled tale from Caldecott Honor winner David Shannon. Full color.

This is a great book for children who are at least two. Our son wants to read it every night. Now that he's about 3 1/2, we're using it as a reading primer because the language is simple and there are a lot of familiar words - duck, cat, goat, sheep, dog, cow, etc. David Shannon knows what kids like and you can't go wrong with this one - two concepts kids get - ducks and bikes.
